My life is rife with them.
Some zigging instead of zagging, outright stepping in traps, and occasional saving from jaws of defeat.
All a result of mistakes.
Some of my greatest triumphs are the result of mistakes.
Yes, it can be a relative term, as can most things.
And there are mistakes on all levels.
Kind of like 'if only' (I had a gun etc) there are frequent regrets as a side dish to the blunder.
There is resolutely going on no matter what .
There is giving up.
Misunderstanding has its way and some live a lie without knowing it.
Some wonder and dig deeper, finding something shiny in the muck.
Others learn from a mistake and never make the same one again.
Yet more never learn and live in a cycle of repetition, the vicious circle.
I remember a gal in local theater who was a stickler for certain ways of doing things re acting and production in general.
She saw a well known actress perform locally. Apparently this actress 'did all the wrong things' but performed brilliantly anyway. Uhuh.
Mistakes may simply be a new or different way of operating.
Finding what works can be trial and error.
Thus, learn from mistakes.
You may be instituting something that works beyond the ken.
